Avatars consume as much electricity as Brazilians

As with most statistics, these really don’t mean anything, but I thought it was an interesting discussion.

More narrowly still, the average citizen of Brazil consumes 1,884 kWh, which, given the fact that my avatar estimate was rough and conservative, means that your average Second Life avatar consumes about as much electricity as your average Brazilian.
